This guide makes recommendations based on the best available research evidence about how early childhood services with 3-5 year-olds can engage with families to enhance children’s early learning and development. 1 It sets out ‘promising’ and ‘not promising’ approaches drawn from multiple studies which have measured the effects of different strategies. While there is room for improvements in the quality of available research evidence, 2 these approaches provide ‘best bets’ for guiding practice. This guide also sets out next steps for early childhood services and practitioners to consider how the findings are relevant to them.

This video covers chapter 1 of the college textbook that goes over Child Growth and Development.
This presents how and why children grow, develop, and learn. We will look at how we change physically over time from conception through adolescence. We examine cognitive change, or how our ability to think and remember changes over the first 20 years or so of life. And we will look at how our emotions, psychological state, and social relationships change throughout childhood and adolescence.

ELLO is short for Everyday Language & Learning Opportunities. And as an organization, ELLO has the overarching goal of increasing the number of quality, language-rich interactions between caregivers and young children. We seek to connect with home routines and community spaces that are routinely accessed by families, such as grocery stores, laundry mats, public transit, libraries, and outdoor spaces. Our resources encourage caregivers to talk with their children and are thematically tailored to fit into familiar routines and community settings. This is intentional and provides opportunities for conversations throughout everyday routines that can empower all caregivers to realize how much they have the ability to benefit their child’s life through something completely free, talking!

The Reading Evidence assignment is student centered which allows each student to explore and identify a system that works best for them.
